TEMECHINE

C11H21N .HBr

Molecular Formula C11H21N .HBr
Description

a neuronal nicotinic AChR antagonist. Potent ganglioblocker. Hypotensive. Good penetration of biological membranes. Rigid bicyclic analog of Pempidine. Non-quaternary analog of Quirestine.

Quinicludine derivative‚ C11H21N .HBr ‚ synthetic.

 
Biological Activity

For comparative information see the attached 2 tables.

Cell permeant central nicotinic acetylcholine receptor blocker without action on skeleton muscle innervation. Quinuclidine analog of Pempidine‚ non-quaternary analog of Quirestine. Hypotensive‚ selectively blocks autonomic ganglia‚ the adrenal medulla‚ carotid glomerules.



Three-fold more active than Pempidine‚ wide therapeutic range [1]. Slows down neuronal pre- and post ganglionar transmission: dilates peripheral vessels and bronchi‚ arterial pressure and pressor reaction drop. Suppresses gland secretion. Sedative.



Good penetration of biological membranes.



Blocks superior cervical sympathetic ganglion (electrical stimulation of cats nictiating membrane): ED50 = 17 µg/kg ‚ Pempidine 54 µg/kg.



Blocks autonomic ganglion ( vagus electrical stimulation): depressor reaction suppression - 50 µg /kg 40%‚ 500 µg/kg 100%. After 100% nicotinic blockade with 500 µg /kg‚ cardiac system still reacts to muscarinic action of ACh (i.v.).
